RightPath allows you to adjust its lessons as you need. You can assign the whole lesson exactly how it is, or you can remove pieces of it before assigning it.  
When you are ready to assign and are on the LESSON ASSIGN page (see Q4) you are going to want to adjust the Lesson Components piece. Instead of INCLUDE ALL you are going to want to switch the radio button to INCLUDE ONLY, uncheck the components you do not want to assign.

Go to the Students tab and unmark the classes or students it was assigned to. Click SAVE when you are done.

  1. How do I make changes to a RightPath lesson by adding my own content and changing some of the questions before assigning it?

9. Click the Contents Tab edit, add or delete anything in the lesson.  
*To add additional items, use the blank text boxes at the bottom of the Content tab.

By default, most of RightPath’s multiple-choice sections (Independent Practice & Test Ready sections) are autograded and do not require teacher attention. However, you can view your student’s work and change grading if necessary. 
 

*Extended Response and some Test Ready questions will require teacher attention for grading. 
 

If the student chose a wrong answer you will see the question is marked red (example question 1 below) if the student answered the question correctly you will see it marked in green (question 2 below) 

 
The highlighted green answer is the correct answer choice.  


 


 

 

If for some reason you would like to give credit or take away credit for an answer choice, you can override the system and mark the question incorrect or correct. If you do this you will need to click UPDATE GRADE before closing out.
